What is an SKW file

SKW files mostly belong to CalTodo.

This file is a scheduler file that holds calendar and appointment data. It was created by specialized calendar software, notably CalTodo, and is also recognized as a Lotus Organizer data file.
Information stored in a SKW file includes event dates, task lists, and other scheduling details, all encoded in a proprietary internal structure.
Key details as outlined by FilExt.com include:

Purpose: To record calendar events and appointments.
Usage: Managed by dedicated scheduling applications.
Format: A non-standard, proprietary data format, often used in older digital calendar systems.

FilExt.com tip: If you want to open or view a SKW file, use the original software or look for conversion tools that can change it into a more common format like .ics.

How can I open an SKW file?

You need a suitable software like CalTodo to open an SKW file. Without proper software you will receive a Windows message "How do you want to open this file?" or "Windows cannot open this file" or a similar Mac/iPhone/Android alert. If you cannot open your SKW file correctly, try to right-click or long-press the file. Then click "Open with" and choose an application. You can also display a SKW file directly in the browser:. Just drag the file onto this browser window and drop it.
